| SARPCCO Clearance Certificate for Importing motor vehicles from non-SADC Areas |
General |
The Royal Eswatini Police Service |
The Royal Swaziland Police is involved in approving the import and export of cars and the issue of a SARPCCO certificates to allow the export and import of vehicles. |
REPS also issues a Police Clearance (PCL) RSP200 form, for importing vehicles (brand new, second-hand and non-SARPCCO originating second-hand). These vehicles are however first imported and the process of obtaining the RSP200 is required to allow registration of the vehicle. The RSP200 is therefore not a required document for import but it is a leeway to register the imported car. |
